Let's Rejoice

Gina made me a beautiful Teddy Bear Puppet to keep me warm & snugly. All my stuff animals have to be in plastic bags while I am in here. Great news!! My white blood count went from 800 to 3600 to 5600 today!!!! The platelet count went from 11K to 13K on its own. I had no transfusions today. My Aunt Florence sent me this prayer. Let us pray that my platelet count will get up into the 50K range over the next two days.

PRAYER TO ST. PEREGRINE
The "Cancer Saint"
Feast, May 2nd
"ST. Peregrine, you have given us an example to follow
as a Christian you were steadfast in love;
as servite you were faithful in service;
                                as a penitent you humbly acknowledged your sin;
afflicted you bore suffering with patience.
Intercede for us,
        then, with our heavenly Father so that we
steadfast, humble and patient may
         receive from Christ Jesus the grace we ask."
